  I suspect the real horror story is that this happens to all of us, no matter what we write. Or at least it feels that way. 🙂 Thanks for sharing, Darlene. Chris finds some great stuff!

  Don’t we all. I always feel like I’m covered in blood when I get my first rounds of editing done. 😯

      There is a vast difference in rates, and I’ve seen many editors who will work with you. You’d be surprised what a diligent search will turn up. And honestly, it’s so important that I did without other things to make sure I could manage it. It’s absolutely worth looking for the best one you can afford.

Rewriting, revising, and editing is always a horror…any way you “cut it.” 🙂
